Gibbons School Has Talent

The held its first annual Talent Show last Friday at the school’s cafeteria.

Almost 50 students took part in 34 different acts, ranging from singing to dancing to playing an instrument to a karate demonstration to performing a short skit poking fun at New Jersey hairstylists.

One group even made smoothies as their talent act. Two acts featured a rendition of Justin Bieber’s hit “Baby,” with the Gibbons School audience, filled to capacity, definitely catching a case of “Bieber Fever.”
